The door opened as a tall man stood in front of me dressed formally with black hair and few gray hairs here and there. "Princess Dalila, please come in" he smiled and I swallowed even more butterflies as he moved aside seeing two young men and one little kid, standing in front of a grand staircase lined from tallest to shortest. I stepped inside feeling my insides shaking trying not to show that I am scared. The door closed behind me and the man smiled and bowed "I am Lord Himlock, and these are my four sons" I look back over at the boys only seeing three of his four sons. "The eldest Baldrick" "m'lady" he had dark purple hair, pale skin and green eyes. He bowed and kissed my hand "please let me know how I can make your stay more comfortable your highness" I blush some but smiled "thank you" "my second eldest..." he stopped and looked at the empty spot in line. "We're is Damon?" "Not sure father" "right here" suddenly a maroon haired guy with light tan skin and blue eyes popped out of nowhere. "Damon, we talked about this" "and?" "And you know better" he scoffed rolling his eyes and crossing his arms. "Anyway this is Damon my second eldest" He looked at me with a glare in his eye "don't expect me to look after you princess" he looks away from me and close his eyes. "My third eldest, Alastair" a dark red haired male with pale white skin and hazel eyes smile at me "let's just see how long you last here princess" he winked at me and smiles. "Then Florence my youngest" I look down at a small boy who is about thirteen or so, he hid behind his older brother Alastair, looking at me with dark purple eyes and dark green hair. "W-will you p-play with me?" I smile as I stood up strait and look at him. I suddenly feel a pressure on my heart before I could even make a word I am putting my hand over my heart stumbling backwards. I feel arms around me, I look up weak seeing Baldrick hold me. "I suggest witch ever you is doing this to stop!" I hear Lord Himlock yell before it goes black.106Please respect copyright.PENANAmi47z28uqZ
"I just wanted to see her soul" "you could have killed her Damon!" "And?" " you would be responsible for the death of the princess, then burned to death!" "Ha!, like to see them catch me first" "at lest she is breathing" "Baldrick?" "Yes Florence?" "Do you think she will be well enough to play with me?" "Once she rest a while, I bet she would be more than happy to play with you" "Now I have to attend to some business, Damon stay here and watch after her as your brothers finish her room and dinner" "why me!" " because you are the one that made her pass out" "what ever" I heard a scoff and a door close. I slowly sat up holding my chest "don't get to eager to get going princess" I look to my right and see Damon leaning against the wall his arms crossed looking serious. I look to the side wanting to avoid his gaze since it scared me deeply. I felt a dip in the bed, but looking over I saw nothing, then Damon was in front of me suddenly. "I have no idea how my brother can hold back, your smell is so strong" he put his hand against my cheek and came closer to my face. "W-what are you doing?!" " stay still princess or it will hurt even more if you struggle" "w-what!" I then feel a sting in my neck, I gasp and grip on Damon's shirt tying not to cry. "Mmm your blood is so sweet princess" I start feeling weak as I lossen my grip on Damon's shirt. "You have to be kidding me Damon!" I open my eyes and see Baldrick at the door. "Oh come on you have no idea what it's like" "it's called control Damon" "easy for you to say" I push Damon away and run behind Baldrick holding my neck. "Father had to leave for a few day's he didn't state why, but he put me in charge" I heard a scoff from Damon "why is it always you or Alastair who's is in charge when father is gone, Alastair is younger than me!" "Because I am more responsible than you" I jump and look behind me seeing Alastair, I hear another scoff from Damon than a hand lands on my shoulder making me jump more. "Calm down princess, I'm not gonna hurt you like my childish older brother" "what did you say!" "Anyway dinner is ready, and I hate cold dinner" "what to say that again short stack!" Baldrick leads me away from the room where Damon and Alastair were fighting.106Please respect copyright.PENANAmiHZELmtR8
I sat and ate dinner feeling eyes staring at me. I looked up to see Damon staring at me. I looked back down quickly avoiding his gaze. "So princess" I look up seeing Alastair smiling at me "how was your ride here?" "It went well I suppose, I was asleep for most of it actually" "well the ride here is pretty long from here to the East kingdom and back" I look at Baldrick wanting to ask something but didn't. "I always fall asleep when we are riding in the carriage, any where we go" "because you're a growing demon Florence" I choke on my water and cover my mouth and look at Baldrick "excuse me, but did you say demon?" "I did yes princess" "your in a house full of demons and vampires princess" I freeze looking at them my heart coming out of my chest. "Mmmm that look on you face princess" a hand grabs my chin and I am facing Damon smirking. "Damon please go back to your set so I can explain please" he huffed letting go of my chin and sat back down. I looked at Baldrick trying not to get up and run out. "As I said before we are demons and vampires or both" "both?" I gulped and let Baldrick explain more. "We are a vampire or a demon or both, we also have our roles in this family and our name meaning determines when that roles is" "like?" I looked at Baldrick supper confused. "Like my name means bold ruler, meaning that I am going to be the leader of demons" "so your a demon?" "Exactly, another example is Damon's name, meaning death..." "meaning I am the ruler of death and I am both a vampire and demon" he crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair smiling at me. "Yes well Alastair has the same name meant as our father, Defender of people or protector of mankind, meaning he is going to be head of the house hold and the family business, and he is just a vampire" "oooo Baldrick can I explain mine!" "Of course Florence" "my name means Thriving, meaning that I am going to control plants and animals, not not humans because that's big brother Damon's job!" "Oh and I am a Demon like Baldrick!" "So two vampires and three demons?" "Actually two vampires and four demons, our father is a demon" I look at Alastair who was collecting plates. "Well princess I will so you to your room since I don't trust Damon to do it" "hey!" Baldrick stands up and I fallow him looking back at Damon help cleaning up.106Please respect copyright.PENANAdcXBCOqmlf
I look around the room walking around gently running my fingers over the worn white furniture, "is everything to your liking princess?" "Everything is fine Baldrick" "if you need anything please let me know princess" "actually there is one thing" "yes?" He looks at me smiling "can you just call me Dalila please?" "Of course" he smiles and bowled closing the door, when I hear him walk away I sit at the vanity and put my face in my hands and start crying. "Crying isn't going to help you princess" I looked up and see Alastair sitting in the edge of my bed with his arms crossed looking at me. " I would appreciate it if you just called me Dalila" I wiped my eyes and look at Alastair but he was gone, "you know it took everything in me not to pin you to the wall and suck the life out of you when you first walked in" I turned around and he was leaning against the chair I looked at him as he smirked. "Damon told me that your blood is sweet like candy, I wonder if he is right?" He leans in and I fall back in the floor. I backed up looking at him "please don't Alastair" I stood up and backed up the smirk on his face getting bigger as he came towards me. I backed up into the wall as he grins and places his hands on either side of my head. "Now, let's find out if my brother is telling the truth about your blood princess" he moved my dress sleeve down making my breast show a little more than I am comfortable with. I felt the same pain when Damon bit me by this felt worse. "Mmmm for once my older brother isn't lying" I felt the sting again on my other breast, I gasp and grip Alastair's shirt. "I also believe that I told you that she belongs to me" I look at the balcony door and see Damon leaning against it looking at us my top half almost completely off. Alastair laughed and looked at his brother "now I know that's not true" I push Alastair away from me and cover my chest. "Can you leave please so I can bathe?" "Oh come on princess we were just getting started" I backed up the brothers looked at me hunger in their eyes and licking their lips. I backed my self up to the door as Damon put his hand on the right side of my head and Alastair put his hand on my left side of my head both grinning at me. I opened the door as the leaning closer to me I then stated running.106Please respect copyright.PENANAgNasFiDJIk
I lean against the wall to catch my breath, "mmmm where are you, princess?" "I gasp and see silhouettes coming down the hall I back up and run into someone. I freeze as hands land on my shoulders. "Dalila what are you doing up so late?" I look behind me and see Baldrick, I sigh in relief as Alastair and Damon come running around the corner. I scream and hide behind Baldrick. "God dang it princess, why did you have to run into Baldrick?" "It's more like I ran into her catching her breath" Baldrick held me close and looked at his two younger brothers. "Do I have to write father about this?" They sigh and cross their arms "no" "I would expect something like this form Damon, but Alastair I am ashamed, the next head of the household" Baldrick shook his head with a serious look on his face. "Since you kids can't behave, I guess Dalila will be sleeping in my room till you two can control yourselves" "Oh come on Baldrick, you have no idea what's it's like to a vampire" "Baldrick, what going on?" I look behind me and see Florence rubbing his eyes. "Nothing Florence, we are all going back to bed" Baldrick wrapped his arm around my shoulder and led me to his room as he helped Florence back to bed.106Please respect copyright.PENANAWJvwX4ZcUZ
His room was much darker than mine, guessing because he was a demon I really have no idea why. "You better get some sleep Dalila, I am guess since our father isn't here you will be coming to school with us." He handed me a pillow and a blanket "I know it's not what you expected to sleep on your first night here but since my brothers are acting like children you will have to sleep here, hopefully only for tonight." I nodded then lay down and closed my eyes.
